(b)           Guarantees Unconditional.  To the extent permitted by law, the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

(i)            any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise;

(ii)           any modification or amendment of or supplement to any Loan Document;

(v)           the existence of any claim, set-off or other right whatsoever (in any case, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory) that such Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Guaranteed Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions,

3

provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(vi)          any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person for any reason of any Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment of any Obligation by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person;

(vii)         any manner of application of any collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Obligations under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Credit Party or its Subsidiaries;

(viii)        any failure of any Guaranteed Party to disclose to any Guarantor any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any Credit Party now or hereafter known to such Guaranteed Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Guaranteed Parties to disclose such information); or

(ix)          other than satisfaction in full of the Release Conditions, any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other party to any Loan Document, any Guaranteed Party or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (viii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder.

(c)           Release of Guarantees.  (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth therein, all the Guarantees will be released when all the Release Conditions are satisfied.  If at any time any payment of an Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned, in whole or in part, upon the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, the Guarantees will be reinstated with respect thereto as though such payment, or part thereof, had been due but not made at such time.

(ii)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth therein, the Administrative Agent may release any Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and, with respect to any Guarantor that is a Subsidiary of Holdings or the Borrower, shall release such Guarantor upon the disposition by Holdings or the Borrower of all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests in such Guarantor in a transaction not prohibited by the Credit Agreement.

(d)           Waiver by Guarantors.  Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, diligence, marshaling, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Guarantee will not be subject to any revocation, limitation, impairment, set-off, defense, counterclaim, discharge or termination for any reason other than full satisfaction of the Release Conditions as provided in clause (c)(i) above or a release effected in accordance with clause (c)(ii) above.

4

(e)           Subrogation.  A Guarantor that makes a payment with respect to an Obligation hereunder will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower with respect to such payment; provided that no Guarantor may enforce any payment by way of subrogation against the Borrower, or by reason of contribution against any other Guarantor of such Obligation, until all of the Release Conditions have been satisfied in full.  If any amount is paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full of the Obligations then due and payable, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Obligations then due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

(f)            Stay of Acceleration.  If acceleration of the time for payment of any Obligation by the Borrower is stayed by reason of the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, all Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

(g)           Right of Set-Off.  In addition to any rights and remedies of the Guaranteed Parties provided by applicable law, if any Obligation is not paid promptly when due (after the passage of any applicable cure period as set forth in the Loan Documents), each of the Guaranteed Parties and their respective Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Guarantor, any such notice being waived by each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Guaranteed Party or Affiliate or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee, irrespective of whether or not such Guaranteed Party made any demand thereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured; provided that neither any Guaranteed Party nor any of its Affiliates will be entitled to exercise any such set off with respect to any trust or payroll account.  Each Guaranteed Party agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the relevant Guarantor and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Guaranteed Party; provided that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of such set off and application.

(h)           Continuing Guarantee.  Each Guarantee is a continuing guarantee, is binding on the relevant Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent or the Guaranteed Parties and their successors and permitted assigns under the Credit Agreement.  If all or part of any Guaranteed Party’s interest in any Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the transferor’s rights under each Guarantee, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, will automatically be transferred with such obligation.  Without limiting Section 2(c) no Guarantor will have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(i)            Limitation on Obligations of Guarantor.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the Guarantee of each Guarantor not

5

constitute a fraudulent conveyance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of applicable state law.  To effectuate that intention, the parties hereto hereby agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of applicable state law.

(j)            Reinstatement.  If at any time payment of any of the Obligations or any portion thereof is rescinded, disgorged or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Guaranteed Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, or if any Guaranteed Party repays, restores, or returns, in whole or in part, any payment or property previously paid or transferred to the Guaranteed Party in full or partial satisfaction of any Obligation, because the payment or transfer or the incurrence of the obligation is so satisfied, is declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable under any state or federal law (collectively a “Voidable Transfer”), or because such Guaranteed Party elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with an assertion that the payment, transfer or incurrence is a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer and as to all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and attorney’s fees of the Guaranteed Party related thereto, the liability of each Guarantor hereunder will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist as though the Voidable Transfer had never been made.

(k)           Contribution by Guarantors.  All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guarantee.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guarantee such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor will be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date.  “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guarantee in respect of the obligations Guaranteed.  “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guarantee that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 2(k), any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder will not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor.  “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate

6

amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guarantee (including in respect of this Section 2(k)), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 2(k).  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder will be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 2(k) will not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 2(k).

Section 3.              General Representations and Warranties.  Each Guarantor represents and warrants that:

(a)           Such Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

(b)           In executing and delivering this Agreement (including providing its Guarantee), each Guarantor has (i) without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party or any information received from the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party and based upon such documents and information it deems appropriate, made an independent investigation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries, the business, assets, operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise of Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries, and any circumstances which may bear upon such transactions or the obligations and risks undertaken herein with respect to the Obligations, (ii) adequate means to obtain from Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries on a continuing basis information concerning Holdings, the Borrower and such Subsidiaries, (iii) full and complete access to the Loan Documents and any other documents executed in connection with the Loan Documents and (iv) not relied and will not rely upon any representations or warranties of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party not embodied herein or any acts heretofore or hereafter taken by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party (including any review by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party of the affairs of Holdings, the Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries).

Section 4.              Further Assurances; General Covenants.  Each Guarantor covenants as follows:

(a)           Such Guarantor shall, at the Borrower’s expense, execute, deliver, file and record any statement, assignment, instrument, document, agreement or other paper and take any other action that from time to time may be necessary, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in addition to any regulatory filings with Governmental Authorities which are required under Requirements of Law to be made by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, in order to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies with respect to any of the Obligations.

7

(b)           Such Guarantor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of any change of its name, corporate structure or location.

Section 5.              Remedies upon Event of Default.  If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) hereunder.

Section 6.              Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)           The Guarantors shall pay, or shall cause the Borrower to pay, to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days following written demand therefor:

(i)            the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including transfer taxes and Attorney Costs, that the Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of this Agreement or (y) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights or powers under this Agreement; and

(ii)           the amount of any fees that the Borrower has agreed in writing to pay to the Administrative Agent and that has become due and payable in accordance with such written agreement.

(b)           If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in this Agreement, the Guarantors shall pay or shall cause the Borrower to pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Administrative Agent or as otherwise required by law.

Section 7.              General Provisions Concerning the Administrative Agent.

(a)           Appointment and Authorization; “Administrative Agent.”  The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed, designated and authorized to take such actions under the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein, the Administrative Agent will not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor will the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Guaranteed Party, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities will be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b)           Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and will be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative Agent will not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of

8

any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section and obligations with respect to reimbursement of fees and expenses and indemnification under Section 6 will apply to any such agent, employee or attorney-in-fact.

(c)           Liability of Administrative Agent.  No Agent-Related Person will (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or required by applicable law) or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any Guaranteed Party for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Guarantor, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof, or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or for any failure of any Guarantor, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  No Agent-Related Person will be under any obligation to any Guaranteed Party to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof.

(d)           Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely, and will be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower or any Subsidiary), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent will be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it first receives such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Guaranteed Parties against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Administrative Agent will in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby or by the Credit Agreement in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto will be binding on all the Guaranteed Parties.

(e)           Notice of Default.  The Administrative Agent will not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Guaranteed Party or the Borrower referring to the Credit Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent shall notify the Guaranteed Parties of its receipt of any such notice.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance

9

with Article 8 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but will not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it deems advisable or in the best interest of the Guaranteed Parties.

(f)            Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity.  Royal Bank of Canada and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower or any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates as though Royal Bank of Canada were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Guaranteed Parties.  The Guaranteed Parties acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Royal Bank of Canada and its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower, such Guarantor, such Subsidiary or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent will be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to its Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments Royal Bank of Canada will have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Guaranteed Party and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Guaranteed Party” and “Guaranteed Parties” include Royal Bank of Canada in its individual capacity.

(g)           Information as to Obligations and Actions by Guaranteed Parties.  For all purposes of this Agreement, including determining the amounts of the Obligations or whether any action has been taken under the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely on information from (i) its own records for information as to the Lenders, their Obligations and actions taken by them; (ii) any Guaranteed Party for information as to its Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained such information from the foregoing sources; and (iii) the Borrower, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources.

(h)           Within two (2) Business Days after it receives or sends any notice referred to in this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall send to each Guaranteed Party Requesting Notice, copies of any notice given by the Administrative Agent to any Guarantor, or received by it from any Guarantor, pursuant to Section 4(b).

(i)            The Administrative Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Guaranteed Party or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) may expose the Administrative Agent to liability (unless the Administrative Agent is indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Guaranteed Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Guaranteed Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction.

Section 8.              Additional Guarantors.  Any Person may become a party hereto by signing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee Agreement Supplement, whereupon such Person will become a “Guarantor” as defined herein.

Section 9.              Notices.

(ii)           if to any Lender, to the Administrative Agent to be forwarded to such Lender at its address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its administrative questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as will be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent;

(iii)          if to any other Guarantor other than Holdings, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person in its first Guarantee Supplement or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as will be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties; and

(iv)          if to any Guaranteed Party Requesting Notice, to such address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as such party will hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent.

All such notices and other communications will be deemed given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if delivered by mail, four (4) Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below), when delivered.  In no event will a voicemail message be effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.

(b)           This Agreement may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or PDF delivered by electronic mail.  The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures will, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as signed originals and will be binding on the Borrower, all Guarantors, the Guaranteed Parties and the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by

11

a manually delivered original thereof; provided, that the failure to request or deliver the same will not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile or PDF document or signature.

(c)           Electronic mail and Internet and intranet websites may be used only to distribute routine communications and to distribute this Agreement for execution by the parties hereto and executed signature pages, and may not be used for any other purpose.

(d)           The Administrative Agent and the Lenders will be entitled to rely and act on any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Guarantor even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Guaranteed Party and each Related Party thereto from all losses, costs, out-of-pocket expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of any Guarantor; provided that such indemnity will not, as to any Person, be available to the extent that such losses, costs, out-of-pocket expenses or liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.  All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

Section 16.            Judgment Currency.

(a)           This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of a particular currency (the “Specified Currency”) and place of payment (the “Specified Place”) is of the essence, and the obligation of each Guarantor under this Agreement to make payment to or for account of a Guaranteed Party in the Specified Currency will not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed or converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by such Guaranteed Party in the Specified Place of the full amount of the Specified Currency payable to such Guaranteed Party under this Agreement.

(b)           If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange that will be applied will be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Specified Currency at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in the Specified Place with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered.  The obligation of each Guarantor in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Guaranteed Party (the “Entitled Person”) will, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the judgment currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer the Specified Currency to the Specified Place with the amount of the judgment currency so adjudged to be due; each Guarantor hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, shall indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by

13

which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased and transferred.
